Featured Estates Property from Merino Hill, Monmouth County, New Jersey Samuel Gardiner Wright was a prominent Philadelphia merchant, gentleman farmer, and New Jersey politician. In 1810, he commissioned a Federal-style manor home to be built on his family’s 300 acre estate in Monmouth County, New Jersey. Merino Hill, named for Wright’s interest in raising Merino Sheep, became the Wright family’s summer escape from city life.

Until the early 1800’s the Spanish government had refused to allow Merino sheep to be exported, thus the foundation animals raised at Merino Hill were some of the first of the breed in America. According to his daybook, Wright made his first purchase of sheep with “Mr. Dupont of Wilmington and others.” Wright, a member of the Whig party, was elected to the Twentyninth Congress and served from March 4, 1845, until his death in July of the same year. Upon Wright’s death, Merino Hill passed into the hands of his son, Harrison Gardiner Wright, and has since remained in the Wright family as a privately held historic home. Merino Hill was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.

Property from Ditchley, the Colonial house formerly the Virginia home of Alfred I. and Jessie Ball duPont Ditchley, a historic Virginia plantation, was formally the Virginia home of Alfred I. and Jessie Ball duPont. The estate land was originally given to Colonel Richard Lee, Attorney General of the Colony of Virginia in 1651.

Lee’s son Hancock Lee built the first mansion on the property in 1687, although the original home would succumb to fire damage less than forty years later. The historic home currently standing on the Ditchley estate was built by Hancock Lee’s grandson, Kendall Lee, in 1762. The Georgian mansion is described by the National Register of Historic Places as “an important example of Tidewater Virginian Georgian architecture.” In 1789, the estate was purchased by James Ball and descended in the Ball family until it was sold to Cora Lee Carter Keane in 1920. In 1932, the property was purchased by Jessie Ball and Alfred I. duPont who had met at Ditchley while the estate was in her family. The duPont’s took pride in their Virginia home, restoring and refurnishing the estate with fine English and American furniture and decorative arts.

Property from the Estate of Palmer Brown, Merion Station, Pennsylvania Palmer Brown (1920-2012), of Merion Station, Pennsylvania, was a well known children’s book author and illustrator. He attended Swarthmore College and the University of Pennsylvania, but had no formal artistic training. Brown’s vivid imagination and beautifully illustrated stories captured the imaginations of children around the world. His most popular stories were published in the 1950s; they include Beyond the Paw Paw Trees and Something for Christmas and continue to be enjoyed over sixty years later.

In addition to his literary talents, Brown was also an art connoisseur and collector of fine American Classical period furnishings.

Also including Property from the Estate of Andrew Ducsik, Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania and Property from the Collection of Bertha King Benkard, Long Island and New York City, New York.

H: 9 1/2 in. Diam: 9 1/2 in. Weight: 80 troy oz. note: One of only six known examples.

Hailed as a master of his trade, and featured in multiple museum collections and exhibitions, Vitali is a fourth generation silversmith, who stamps his pieces with the hallmark once used by his father and grandfather: "UV." He has done work for Tiffany, Cartier, Movado, Bulgari and Steuben.

Charles O. Perry was an internationally renowned architect, industrial designer, and sculptor. One of his more famous sculptures, Continuum, is located in front of the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D. C. The Cassini sculpture is named after astronomer Giovanni Domenico Cassini (1625-1712), who believed that a planetary orbit could be along the intersection of a cylinder with a sphere. Inspired by this notion, Perry created a sculpture comprised of six such Cassini orbits at the same radius. Large scale, steel versions of the Cassini sculpture are installed at the Civic Arts Complex in Ringwood, Australia; in East Moline, Illinois; and in a few private collections around the world. $3,000-5,000

THE COLLECTION OF MR. & MRS. JAY MOYER, LEDERACH, MONTGOMERY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA lots 351-582 Jay R. Moyer, a public servant and former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, is a proud descendant of Mennonite and Schwenkfelder immigrants, who arrived on ships such as the "Good Ship Friendship," which docked in the City of Philadelphia in 1729. Jay's ancestor, Hans Christian Meyer, along with other early settlers from Switzerland and Germany, finally settled and helped to form the Township of Lower Salford in 1741, formerly part of the County of Philadelphia.

Because of his Pennsylvania German heritage, Jay became particularly interested in the items used in the daily lives of the Pennsylvania German settlers: their pottery, iron, textiles, ceramics, painted and decorated furniture, wood carvings and of course, their fraktur. In fact, Martin Gottschall, one of America's most important fraktur artists, along with his brother Samuel, were schoolmasters at the small oneroom schoolhouse adjacent to the Salford Mennonite Church in Lower Salford Township, where many of Jay's earliest ancestors and family are buried.

Jay has attended auctions for more than thirty-seven years and has made many friendships and acquaintances in the collecting community. Freeman's is pleased to offer the Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Jay Moyer at auction.

In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest.

Premium shall be: 25% on the first $50,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion from $50,001 through $1,000,000, and 12% thereafter.

14 Unless exempted by law from the payment thereof, the buyer will be required to pay any and all federal excise tax and any state and/or local sales taxes, including where deliveries are to be made outside the state where a sale is conducted, which may be subject to a corresponding or compensating tax in another state.

15 Freeman’s may, as a service to buyer arrange to have purchased property posted and shipped at the buyer’s expense. Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier recommended by Freeman’s.

Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer.

16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid.

11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose.

17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion.

12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid.

18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor’s and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
